The Earth Dragon Demon Emperor challenged the Celestial Roc Demon Emperor, leading to a fierce battle. Despite the Celestial Roc Demon Emperor's speed, the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor utilized its earth manipulation abilities to create a mountain prison, though it ultimately failed to trap its opponent. The Celestial Roc Demon Emperor retreated, injured but vowing to fight again. The Earth Dragon Demon Emperor returned victorious, collecting treasure feathers and entering seclusion, while the Ye family prepared to cultivate the Black Crow Flame Ear.

Within the Grotto Heaven, a wafting Spirit Fragrance permeated the atmosphere.

Five plump and rosy Spiritual Peaches had already inclined their pointed lower halves. The Peach Wood Demon, transforming into a Spirit Shadow, once again counted beneath the tree before directing its gaze toward the distant mountain peak. It was eager to present them to its master, even though only five Spiritual Peaches had ripened this time. However, the efficacy of these Longevity Spiritual Peaches extended beyond merely extending lifespan; they could also bolster a cultivator's True Essence. Their value had undoubtedly soared, a consequence of the True Essence the demon had infused into the Spiritual Peaches while refining the Wood Heart over the years.

After a prolonged anticipation, the distant Ye Jingcheng finally concluded his cultivation session. From afar, Ye Jingcheng was observed employing the Desolate Steps, skillfully navigating his ascent up the mountain peak; each movement was profoundly mystical, imbued with a terrifying explosiveness. Numerous Spirit Patterns materialized across his body's surface. The final step even produced a thunderous boom, seemingly cleaving the void itself.

"I never anticipated the Desolate Steps, even at Great Success, would remain such an impressive offensive technique!" Ye Jingcheng exclaimed in surprise at that moment. Over the preceding six months, he had dedicated himself to cultivating the Body Forging Techniques and the Desolate Steps, alongside the novel Body Refining Spirit Liquid derived from the Golden Glowing Malachite, which facilitated Ye Jingcheng's progression once more in his Body Refining Cultivation. His current Body Refining Cultivation had reached a level comparable to Ye Haicheng.

The contribution of the Body Refining Golden Liquid was substantial, and naturally, Ye Jingcheng's own cultivation at the Golden Core stage also played a crucial role. His advanced Qi Refinement Realm served to circumvent any potential bottlenecks in his Body Cultivation. At that juncture, he even contemplated the possibility of utilizing Body Cultivation to shatter a bottleneck should his Qi Cultivation encounter one. Yet, upon deeper consideration, Ye Jingcheng acknowledged the fantastical nature of this notion. After all, ordinary individuals, lacking potent treasures, would exhaust a significant portion of their lifespan pursuing a single path. Venturing down both would render the maintenance of either path exceedingly difficult, if not impossible.

Ye Jingcheng's current pursuit of Body Refining was, in essence, a complementary endeavor. Firstly, the Barbaric Dominator Body Secret Manual was undeniably profound, and secondly, he possessed the Body Refining Golden Liquid and the aid of numerous Spirit Beasts to augment his cultivation. Thus, he was unburdened by concerns of being unable to sustain both pursuits.

"Master, the Spiritual Peaches are nearing maturity!" Upon observing Ye Jingcheng finally returning to awareness, the Peach Wood Demon eagerly conveyed the news. The current Spiritual Peach matured only once every twenty years, signifying a biennial opportunity for it to bask in pride; naturally, it yearned to showcase its accomplishment. Moreover, it perceived a deceleration in its progress toward the Late Stage of Third Tier. If Ye Jingcheng could provide another Advanced Spirit Pill, its advancement could be expedited.

"Mm, not bad!" Ye Jingcheng couldn't refrain from commending the Wood Demon. He then proceeded to activate the adjacent Spiritual Eye Spring; instantaneously, a torrent of Spiritual Energy surged toward the Spiritual Peaches. Under the deluge of Spiritual Energy, the Spiritual Peaches rapidly attained full maturity, radiating an alluring Spirit Fragrance that drew all the Spirit Beasts and Spirit Fish within the Grotto Heaven. Ye Jingcheng retrieved the Jade Scissors, carefully snipping each peach and placing them into a Treasure Box for safekeeping.

Once all five Spiritual Peaches were gathered, Ye Jingcheng produced several portions of Wood Spirit Liquid and Spirit Pills, which he presented to the Peach Wood Demon. "I am already exerting all my efforts to procure your advancement spirit pill!" Aware of the Peach Wood Demon's aspirations, Ye Jingcheng reassured it.

"Master, I vow to yield more than eight for you within the next two decades, all plump and round, and rosy..." The Peach Wood Demon, upon hearing this, immediately prostrated itself repeatedly. Compared to its own sluggish cultivation, it undeniably favored Ye Jingcheng's consistent injection of Advanced Spirit Pills, which facilitated rapid and potent growth.

"Very well, now that the Spiritual Peaches have matured, focus on cultivating more diligently. If your aim is to receive the Advanced Spirit Pill, you must at least achieve the Peak of Tier Three!" Ye Jingcheng urged, cutting short its exuberance. After dismissing the Peach Wood Demon, Ye Jingcheng turned his attention to the other Spirit Beasts that had congregated nearby.

The Jade Qilin Flood Dragon still bore the mien of a famished dragon, yet its aura exuded the greatest strength. Ye Jingcheng surmised that with the provision of additional Spiritual Objects, it would not be long before the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon broke through to the Mid-stage of Fourth Tier. This time, Ye Jingcheng also produced a Tier Four Profound Jade Cyan Water Pill.

Following the Red Flame Fox's advancement, Ye Jingcheng's proficiency in concocting Tier Four Spirit Pills saw a notable surge. The Profound Jade Cyan Water Pill's formation rate climbed to approximately sixty percent, yielding three to four pills per batch.

Upon consumption, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon's form visibly emanated a cerulean luminescence, and the Spirit Patterns etched upon its scales ignited, radiating a brilliant spectacle.

Nevertheless, the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon still gaped its maw. Ye Jingcheng, consequently, procured several substantial Demon Beast carcasses and presented them.

"Many thanks, Master, roars!" The Jade Qilin Flood Dragon finally bowed its draconic head and retreated into the lake with palpable contentment.

Without neglecting to snatch a few Spirit Fish to completely fill its jaws, it submerged towards the lake's depths.

Ye Jingcheng proceeded to dispense Spirit Pills to the Red Flame Fox and the Golden Scale Beast.

"You two must also endeavor diligently; the Advanced Spirit Pill might arrive for you sooner than for the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon this time!" Ye Jingcheng declared.

The Red Flame Fox showed minimal outward reaction, merely uttering a soft cry.

The Golden Scale Beast, however, behaved differently.

It let out a series of insistent roars.

"Master, this should have occurred long ago! How can I be inferior to the White-Skinned Snake!" At this juncture, the Golden Scale Beast was brimming with vigor, eager to demonstrate its cultivation progress to Ye Jingcheng.

Its Earth Qilin Hall was now capable of manifesting two structures simultaneously, and even when these were shattered, they were transforming towards the Mountain Prison.

It was as if implicitly stating its eventual mastery of the Mountain Prison Rock Burst Skill, inherited from the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor.

"Indeed, not bad!" Ye Jingcheng refrained from mockingly scoffing at this moment; the Golden Scale Beast truly possessed profound comprehension regarding Secret Techniques and Breathing Techniques.

The Red Flame Fox cast a look of disdain towards the Golden Scale Beast upon witnessing this display.

It then expelled a Five-Colored Fire Lotus.

The Fire Lotus displayed five distinct hues: cyan, gold, dark red, purple, and yellow.

As the flames manifested, they compelled the Golden Scale Beast to retreat repeatedly.

The Red Flame Fox's cyan flames had previously inflicted significant distress upon it.

Now, with the appearance of the five colors, an intense, scorching heat was palpable.

Furthermore, under its watchful eyes, the Five-Colored Fire Lotus vanished, instilling an intense, unnameable dread within its heart.

"Enough, retract your Spiritual Fire!" While greatly astonished, Ye Jingcheng hastily intervened.

The emergence of the Five-Colored Fire Lotus had evidently amplified the Red Flame Fox's Secret Technique substantially.

When the Fire Lotus dematerialized, it did not truly disappear; if Ye Jingcheng's conjecture was accurate, its next appearance would be directed towards the Golden Scale Beast.

Moreover, within the Fire Lotus, five Beast Shadows could be discerned, flitting about.

"Golden Scale, you must apply yourself more strenuously!" At this precise moment, Ye Jingcheng harbored doubts that even an upgraded Golden Scale Beast might not prevail against the Red Flame Fox.

As for the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, it was an entity that did not flaunt its power ostentatiously; its advancements over the past decade must have been considerable.

"Roar!" Naturally, the Golden Scale Beast was reluctant to concede, emitting a roar and then ascending to the Celestial Spirit Body Refining Array.

Ye Jingcheng then directed his attention to the remaining Five-Colored Cloud Deer and the Golden Falcon.

These two beasts had, in fact, fallen behind at this point.

However, they were currently at the peak of Tier Three.

Ye Jingcheng also produced two Tier Four Demon Pills.

And presented them.

"You two must also increase your efforts; strive to break through soon!" Ye Jingcheng infused them with a significant measure of Treasure Light.

The Golden Falcon itself lacked the innate endowments of the initial three beasts; if it did not achieve a breakthrough shortly, it would inevitably fall further behind.

Regarding the Five-Colored Cloud Deer, its situation stemmed from insufficient exertion; at the very least, in Ye Jingcheng's judgment, its innate gifts were inferior to the Jade Qilin Flood Dragon, and its efforts surpassed neither the Golden Scale Beast nor the Golden Falcon.

Otherwise, it would not occupy its current cultivation Realm.

Towards these five Spirit Beasts, Ye Jingcheng harbored profound affection; he fervently wished for the five Spirit Beasts to remain by his side, thereby accelerating his own cultivation speed.

The two beasts, having received the Tier Four Demon Beast Core, were overjoyed and commenced their seclusion by the Spiritual Eye Spring subsequent to its consumption.

Their forms became enveloped in Spiritual Light, and their auras began to undergo subtle transformations.

Observing this, Ye Jingcheng released a prolonged exhalation.

Should no unforeseen circumstances arise, within the span of a few years, all his Spirit Beasts would attain Fourth Tier!
